Lubex unattractive skin washing emulsion extra mild pH 5.5 Disp 500 ml

What is Lubex  Extra Mild and when is it used?

Lubex Extra Mild  is a lightly disinfecting skin cleansing and care product for the whole body. Thanks to its composition, Lubex  Extra Mild also promotes the healing process in various skin and skin fungal diseases. Lubex is mild. Even the sensitive mucous membrane is not irritated. Lubex has a weakly acidic, buffered pH of 5.5 and thus preserves the physiological hydro-lipid film (protective acid mantle) of the epidermis (skin). In this way, Lubex  Extra Mild prevents the skin from drying out.

The slightly disinfecting active ingredient Disodium undecylenamido MEA-sulfosuccinate contained in Lubex has a slightly growth-inhibiting effect on various bacteria and skin fungi. Therefore, Lubex supports the effect of local therapeutics in:

• Acne;
• skin fungal diseases;
• infant eczema;
• inflammation in the genital area;
• Rosacea (a chronic inflammatory skin disease of the face).

Lubex Extra Mild is suitable for the supportive treatment of the following skin diseases:

• Eczema, eg contact eczema, endogenous eczema (neurodermatitis), microbial eczema;
• seborrheic eczema (a chronic skin condition affecting areas of skin that contain many sebaceous glands);
• inflammation in skin folds (intertrigo);
• purulent rashes (impetigo);
• psoriasis;
• occupational skin diseases.

Furthermore, Lubex is suitable as a skin washing emulsion in long-term therapy:

• with soap intolerance;
• for infant care;
• for washing, showering and bathing sensitive, inflamed or infected skin;
• for gentle cleaning of the intimate area;
• for the care of aged skin and bed sores.

How do you use Lubex Extra Mild ?

For skin diseases - such as acne and eczema - Lubex  Extra Mild is used like liquid soap. Wet the skin well with lukewarm water, then apply a few squirts of Lubex  Extra Mild directly to the affected areas of the skin and wash gently. Then rinse with lukewarm water and pat dry with a clean cloth without rubbing.

In the case of fungal skin diseases , Lubex Extra Mild is suitable for preventive treatment by washing the endangered skin areas with Lubex  Extra Mild instead of soap. Lubex also supports the healing process in skin fungal diseases if the skin is thoroughly cleaned with Lubex before each application of the local antifungal agent. In addition, continuing to wash the affected skin areas with Lubex instead of soap for 5-6 weeks will prevent recurrence. Always rinse Lubex  Extra Mild with lukewarm water and pat the skin dry with a clean towel.
